Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 160 Reconnaissance Team
"Hey, what's the situation? It's already five past twelve o'clock at night, why is there no movement at all? According to the instructions of the superiors, the large troops will besiege and garrison Xiajie at twelve o'clock tonight. The U.S.-South Korea coalition forces inside the military fortress in Yuli can’t hear any gunfire at all right now?”

The company commander Zhao Yifa, who was squatting in the trench, waited for about an hour, and felt that the surrounding situation was very quiet. There was no sound until 55:[-], so he turned his head and asked the instructor Wang Wenju who was squatting beside him.

At the same time, the instructor Wang Wenju kept his head down, staring intently at the watch on his left wrist, and also kept looking at the time displayed on the watch. Although, he was also muttering in his heart, but he didn't say it out. That's all.

It wasn't until this time that the instructor Wang Wenju raised his head, shifted his gaze from the watch on his left wrist to the company commander Zhao Yifa who was squatting next to him with an anxious expression on his face, with a slightly worried expression In a calm tone, he replied: "Old Zhao, I, like you, have not heard any movement. I guess the current situation may be due to the temporary delay of the time for the large army to besiege Xiajieyu."

After hearing the instructor Wang Wenju finished speaking, the company commander Zhao Yifa immediately let out a "click" in his heart, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. If the instructor Wang Wenju said something, the consequences would be very serious. serious.

Not to mention, all the volunteer soldiers of the third company of their sharp knives, the trench that took nearly three and a half hours to dig just now is of no use. What is more serious is that the rations carried by the soldiers have been exhausted. There is very little left.

If the battle starts for too long, it is estimated that the volunteer soldiers of their entire company will die if they continue to stay in this place hungry, which is something he does not want to happen.

After pondering in his heart for a long time, the company commander Zhao Yifa took out the old pocket watch and looked at the time again. What made him feel angry was that it was already past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. Divided, how come there is no movement at all.

The anxious company commander Zhao Yifa hurriedly consulted with the instructor Wang Wenju next to him in a deliberative tone: "Old Wang, it has been 15 minutes now, and there is still no movement in the direction of Xiajieyu in the north. Tell me Look, what shall we do next?"

Although the instructor Wang Wenju was against the question of whether to dig trenches or not at the beginning, after the decision was made at an impromptu meeting, even though he had reservations, he saw the current situation Ten minutes later, the planned siege of Xiajieyu-ri had not yet started, and he was very nervous.

Hearing company commander Zhao Yifa ask him this question, after thinking about it for a moment, he seriously replied: "Old Zhao, in my opinion, it is not an option for us to wait here, it is better to send a squad to Form a reconnaissance team to investigate the situation near Xiajieyu, or at least get in touch with the large volunteer army that is about to besiege Xiajieyu. Otherwise, we will have to continue to wait in the trenches."

Regarding the proposal made by the instructor Wang Wenju, the company commander Zhao Yifa responded immediately: "Old Wang, your idea is good. We have no way to send telegrams and get in touch with other brother troops. The only way now is to send People have gone to places closer to Xiajieyu to get in touch with the big troops."

After saying this, the company commander Zhao Yifa deliberately paused for a few seconds, then changed the subject, and asked a bit distressed: "However, Lao Wang, according to the current situation, who should we send to lead a squad?" Is it more appropriate to form a reconnaissance team with more fighters?"

As soon as the company commander Zhao Yifa's words fell, the instructor Wang Wenju immediately replied without thinking: "Old Zhao, do you still need to ask me this question? In our company, the people with the smartest brains and the most brave fighters, except Sun Lei Who else could it be?"

Therefore, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju immediately decided to send a platoon leader Sun Lei to lead a squad to form a reconnaissance team to carry out the task of investigating the situation near Xiajieyu and getting in touch with the large volunteer army that was about to besiege. Task.

After receiving this task, Sun Lei immediately called Wang Erkui, Sun Shulin and other eight volunteer soldiers in a row to follow him to the surroundings of Xiajieyu to check the situation.

After all, the hillside where they are located is about five kilometers away from Xiajieyuli in the north, the military fortress where the US-Korean coalition forces are stationed. In addition, it is dark at night, and there are mountains and mountains in the middle , Mountains with an altitude of tens of meters or even more than 100 meters, the line of sight is greatly blocked. Even with military telescopes, the observation distance cannot exceed two kilometers.

Before setting off, Sun Lei not only asked the eight volunteer soldiers who went with him to carry the last weapons and equipment, but at the same time, he also brought the military uniform of the South Korean soldiers he originally wore, in case he arrived in Xiajieyu. The neighborhood might be of great use.

It was a very honorable thing for the other eight fighters in the platoon except Sun Lei to be able to take up the task of inquiring about the situation near Xiajieyu. It was a great danger, but they all showed an overjoyed look, and they all nodded in agreement after Sun Lei's orders.

Less than 2 minutes later, including Sun Lei, a total of nine volunteer soldiers with three companies and one row of sharp knives finished their preparations, and Sun Lei led the other eight people out of the trench that had just been dug. , Walking in the direction of Xiajieyuli in the north.

It took about 10 kilometers for Sun Lei and his nine-person investigation team to arrive at a hillside less than 500 meters away from Xiajieyu, where Sun Lei was holding a telescope. , After observing the surrounding environment, he was surprised to find that there was not even a single sign of the volunteer army that the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju mentioned in their mouths.

To be precise, within a radius of 500 meters around Xiajieyu, except for the nine of them, there was no one else to be seen, and suddenly, he broke out in a cold sweat.

You know, according to the content of the telegram they received from their superiors before they marched from their station on the outskirts of Pyongyang, they must rush to the south of Hagaru-ri, about five kilometers away, on the hillside before twelve o'clock the next night Here lies an ambush, responsible for blocking the remnants of the US-South Korea coalition forces fleeing south from Xiajieyuli.

Almost all the volunteer soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company believed that around twelve o'clock tonight, the large volunteer army would launch a siege on Xiajieyu, but the current situation is that no sign of the large volunteer army was found. Sun Lei was dumbfounded all of a sudden.
